Bio: Hello! My name is David and I am a senior studying Computer Science and Stats. I lived in China for 10 years and moved to New Zealand for 7 years before arriving at US, and at one point my English has both Chinese, Kiwi, and American accents. I play badminton and video games in my spare time. I used to play a lot of RPGs but have been recently into soulslike games. Hit me up if you want to chat about anything or want to play badminton together :D

Bio: Hello everyone! My name is Vittoria, and I am the Vice President of GDD! I am currently a senior at UC Berkeley, majoring in Film and Media. My primary expertise in the gaming field is narrative writing, but I am always picking up new skills as I go! Some of my favorite games are the Legend of Zelda series, the Evil Within 2, and Minecraft! Lastly, check out my latest game, Free Will, on Steam! Since our launch this summer, we have over 3,000 unique players and counting! :)

Bio: Hello! I'm a junior studying CS and this is my first year in GDD as an Officer! I have previously joined GDD DeCal as a Facilitator and now I'm back to the club!

Bio: Hi! I'm Kaitlyn, and I'm a senior studying Data Science and Design Innovation. I am passionate about the intersection between art and technology, and believe that creativity is just as important as technical skill! I joined GDD because I am interested in exploring how art and coding come together to form full-fledged games. I hope that my graphics can help spread the word about GDD and encourage more people to join our community!

Bio: Hi everyone! I'm Darren, I'm a sophomore studying Computer Science. I've always wanted to make games, and I hope to inspire others to share that passion. I hope that by joining the club you'll get to find a new interest (or grow your ability) in one of the many roles of game development! See you soon!

Bio: Hello! I'm Josh, a sophomore studying EECS and a lead facilitator for the Game Design and Development Decal! Teaching is a great way for me to share the joys (and frustrations) of game development with other people, and I hope to meet you all through the club and Decal and lament about gacha games!

Bio: Hey everyone! I'm Shibo, a senior studying CS. I took the game development decal last semester and had an absolute blast. It was so much fun, in fact, that I decided to come back and be a facilitator this time around! When I'm not diving into code, you can find me on my guitar or playing games like Apex Legends or Dead by Daylight. Overall, I look forward to meeting all the new decal students and I hope I can help make this a memorable experience as it was for me.
